Hi, i flashed the modaco rom (without optinal things) on my rooted desire, now i got only 62mb internal memory left, which is to less. please tell me what to delete or what takes so much memory. i uninstalled some stock applications before. so theres no app which is bigger than 1mb. thanks.
Hi guys, I'm having a nasty problem which I cannot figure it out.
So, I bought a 16gb class 6 SD card to replace the 4 gb one, but here is the problem.
With the original 4 gb one, with all apps and games installed it shows 140 mb free (internal storage).
If I remove it and replace with the 16gb one, it shows only 105 mb free, even after a fresh wipe and install (therefore no apps and games installed).
What gives???? Can you please tell me what could be the problem? Why my EXTERNAL card is eating my INTERNAL memory? Is this a paradox? It is supposed to be only an external thing, why does it mess up with my internal memory?
Any help is greatly appreciated, its driving me nuts, I wipped, formatted, and reformatted in an endless loop, hoping to solve the problem, still the same result (old one = 140 mb with all apps installed, new one = 105 mb, only the OS, if I start installing apps and games - even if on SD, it still eats up the memory and gives a low memory message).
LE: Solved! One had A2SD+, the other didn't!
i have a htc wildfire which comes with a 512mb of internal memory. but as soon as i got my phone of the market, it shows only 90mb left under phone memory. i do understand that this comes from the built in phone apps, data, cache and etc. but i need an easy solution to free up the memory as it could slow down my phone. any help?
ps: my phone is on 2.2.1 froyo and hboot 1.01 so yeah i can't root it! :x
It doesn't come with 512 MB internal memory, but, with 175 MB. So, having ~100 MB on a stock phone is normal.
You are probably mixing up some other space (ROM, I think), with the internal memory.

You can look up any mobile spec listing site (Eg: GSMArena). It is clearly listed there 512 MB is the ROM Size on the Wildfire, not its internal memory.
Besides, I think the amount of internal memory can be seen under Settings also on the Stock ROM as well. (Not sure, since it has been months since I have been running the stock ROM), but, on CM7, it clearly shows Available Internal Storage and Total Internal Storage. (Which is 175MB)

yeah gsmarena shows that it has 384 MB of RAM and 512 MB of ROM. didn't say anything about internal memory. on the stock ROM it only shows the available internal storage space, nothing for total. so i couldn't figure out what was the total internal storage size..hehe
anyway thank for the info, it sure relieved me to some point guess i have to wait for the root to come. go unRevoked!
go unRevoked! +1 this
if you are not on 2.2 froyo, you can root your device with unrewoked...

WRONG.
If you are on 2.2, you probably have HBOOT 1.01 wich cant be rooted. Its about HBOOT, not android version.
I have a rooted Incredible with CM7 installed, and I'm having some trouble with the memory.
I have an 8 GB SD card and am currently using about 4 GB of it for backups, music, etc. However, when reading the system data on the phone, it doesnt even use one percent of the internal memory, and I keep getting a low space notification for installing apps.
Is there a way I can partition the internal memory to allocate more space for installing apps?
I don't think you can repartition internal memory, anyone feel free to jump in if I am wrong. Might want to check out S2E in the market, just have to partition your sd card w/ an ext partition & your phone sees it as an extension of your internal memory. Only works w/ CM7 btw.
Course, this doesn't fix the fact that you are showing only 1% usage & can't install anything... what numbers you get in settings when you look at installed apps? Amt used, amt available...

I am using A2SD with AOKP Icecream Sandwhich.I have a 2 gb ext 3 partition.When I goto memory it says 417 mb used and 30/40 mb free.I cannot install apps larger than 30 mb.I installed some apps that were moved to sd card by default.I heard that A2SD doesnt work with apps in sd.So is it normal that i only have 30/40 mb free instead of 90/80 mb.If you want I can post screen shots.
